I had an idea to put a D ring inside the hidden pocket because a lot of vehicles have those fobs that you just need to have on you but not access. It has gone over well.
I love how positive you stay throughout your videos. "It doesn't have to be perfect." You have no idea how much I need to hear those words when sewing. I've destroyed too many a cotton fabric ripping out "imperfect" stitches/seams. I'm definitely coming back to this tutorial once I get some experience under my belt.
Just finished my second bag and i just have to share !! I made the strap a split strap with a zipper, that will allow the bag to be worn as a backpack !! also added an open pocket on the back that allows me to carry my phone against my body , or to drop my keys in . THANKS so much for the video, makes sewing so much easier when i can follow along.
I just finished this bag using ottertex and 12 oz. denim. Wow, you weren't kidding about the fight. I have a very basic Jnanome and I'm proud of her for getting through the layers. I absolutely love how it turned out. I matched it with a metallic rainbow zipper tape, rainbow hardware, and colorful webbing and it is super cute. I initially used a premade binding but it looked awful so I took it off and used your method with strips of ottertex and it's much better. Thank you for this tutorial, it was incredibly helpful with this fun but slightly challenging project.
I'm late the game making one of these bags. Honestly I haven't made a bag in 2.5 years (as is the age of my last little blessing). I found the written instructions a little confusing and you really helped me rebuild my confidence. THANK YOU
I can't tell you how much I love watching your tutorials. Firstly, because I think you're such a lovely person, but also because they are true step-by-step tutorials. I followed along with you and was able to make this bag with no problems. It turned out great! I used the Ottertex WPC, but used a lighter waxed canvas and that combo worked really well. Thanks for all your hard work, Jess!
I have lost count of the number of these I have made. A helpful tip I have is to bind the seams with fold over elastic. Basting first helps too if you have time.
Thanks so much for this tutorial, sewing this bag was so much easier having someone to do it with. I made it for my son for his birthday present out of waxed canvas. Thanks for the tip on the needle size to use. My poor little 20+ year old Pfaff 7570 creative was a trooper! Had a bit of hard time at the most thickest parts. I did not too much on type of zipper to use, I wanted it to be a hardy bag so I chose metal zippers. That was a trick to work around when it came to sewing over them when required but again my Pfaff was great wtih a little help to not hit the metal teeth. I would definatly make this bag again!
Of course Jess u know that u r the favorite of most bag makers out there. Ur tut r to the point n no useless information that is wasteful of our precious time. The only time u talk too much (lol) is the beginning but we can always skip that part. I really love ur tuts. Please dont stop. Cause u do it so well n i know lots of bag makers appreciate it.
I loved your video for this pattern. I’m making my 8 granddaughters the backpack. I’ve done 4 already. You make it look so easy and you’re a great instructor. The waxed canvas from Emmaline bags is wonderful to work with.
I almost didn't make this bag because that rounded zipper scared me to death. Your tutorial really helped me and it was so easy!!!! I did enlarge the pattern by 20%, big enough to make it a Pickleball Bag. I embroidered the front pocket and it turned out so cute! I can't wait to give it to my friend. We are giving her a Pickleball Ball Themed Birthday Party. You are the BEST!!! Thank you so much for making me a better bag maker!
I made this bag with the help of your video and I just love the sling I made. It's small but mighty. Lots of pockets to hold just about anything you want to carry with you. It really doesn't take much fabric or hardware which makes it economical for a budget minded sewist like me. Thank you for the excellent video!
I always feel like I'm sewing WITH you when I watch your videos. You are a wonderful teacher. I'm at the binding phase of this little project and took a break to write this. My seams are so thick 1 inch binding was too skinny. I just got finished removing it and will make wider binding as soon as I can muster up the courage to go forward. One thing I will not do again is use Ottertex WPC for the lining or vinyl as the exterior contrast. The seams are just to thick and scary for this project. But as always this isn't a reflection on you or this video. Thanks for all your great videos!
I can't tell you how obsessed I am to your videos!!!! You're a fabulous instructor...Thank you for that. A I love love LOVE all of those CUTE zipper pulls!!!
First time I have watched one of these videos from start to finish. Oh my gosh, you made all the instructions so easy to understand. Was surprised to see you just using a domestic machine, even if it is a Bernina. That is encouraging
Thank you so much! This video was such a help since I tried to make this bag right after a bout of Covid when I had no brain cells that fired. You have very good videos!
Jess, you are a wonderful teacher! I was a little terrified to try this bag, but had a request for one from a good friend so decided to try it. I wouldn’t say it was an easy sew, but you made it easy to follow and understand! Your amazing!
This is a great tutorial, Jess! I'm buying the pattern right now! You keep saying you're not good at things (topstitching etc). FALSE. I think you're great!!! Thanks for this!! 🐾
I made 2 of these. The first one with vinyl (gorgeous!). The second one I made with this beautiful deep purple waxed canvas (because of your encouragement) and I quilted the front zipper panel! WOW!!!! I love, love, love it!!! Thank you for your in-depth and easy to follow instructions!!!
@@jjsanchez07 Hi there!!! I apologize for taking so long to reply. Have you made it yet? Honestly, it didn't take too long. I'm the type of sewer that will sew a project in more than one day. So all together probably 2 to 3 hours. It is not difficult especially with the help of Jess' video!!
I made one for myself and it turned out very well, thanks to you, Jess… it was my first bag ever! It was so nice my husband would like me to make one for him… I know what I’m doing this weekend!😊 thank you Jess for your clear instructions (I love that you put the stitch length and seam allowance on your tutorials!!!)
TOOO CUTE...this is my 1st bag ...i made this bag out of an old pair of jeans with a coordinating lining. and used a magnetic snap for the front flap. next is the fanny pack out of jeans
Holy cow! Every time I consider making a certain pattern Jess comes out with a video featuring the exact one I’ve been contemplating buying! Well, I’m adding this into my pattern stash now! 🙏👏👏
Jess, you are an amazing teacher! I love love love watching your videos. I’ve just bought this pattern and I’m so excited to make it now I’ve watched you. Thanks so much from an avid fan in the UK
Oh man am i glad u did this tutorial n am sure alot of sewers r happy u did this cause i purchase the pattern n the instructions r too much trouble for a bag. It’s like rocket science. 20 some pages of instruction for this bag is ridiculous. Jess,u r brilliant how u simply demonstrated the making of this bag.
I love this bag! As always, you did a fabulous job! I appreciate all of the work you put in to your videos. I love your positive attitude! I bought all of the supplies, and I’m pretty sure I could have bought the bag already made for less, but really - where is the fun in that? I can’t wait to get started!
Wow I had no idea I was so trendy. I bought a bag very similar to this about a year ago. Love it! I've studied it often to try to recreate it but now I don't have to. Thanks Jess. I know it's not your pattern, but you found it for me. And of course, your tutorial is a must-watch. Will have to wait till after Christmas, but I'll definitely be making this.
Thank you so much for this step by step video. I now have the confidence to make this bag. The difficult part now is choosing the fabric and notions! 😊
Thanks for the excellent tutorial. In the process of making it just now and trying to remain calm when sewing the curves, as you say it doesn't have to be perfect. Sometimes I find it best to get up and walk away for a five minutes rather than get frustrated and make silly mistakes. And I can assure you I've made many a silly mistake and likely more to come 🤣
I love waxed canvas too! I have found that you can mark it with a tracing wheel (no paper) easily, making cutting pattern pieces a snap. And this is my very favorite of all the bags I’ve made so far!! ❤️
@@jjsanchez07 Hmm, kind of hard to say for sure because I did it over about 3 days and took my time because I didn't want to have to seam rip on the waxed canvas. I watched your video then followed directions and replayed portions of your video if I wasn't sure how to construct something. I guess if I just counted cutting and sewing time alone, I would say 8-10 hours but could probably make a second one in more like 6. It wasn't a super fast sew but was well worth the time imo. The results are beautiful.
Great tutorial! Without you I would not have been successful just reading the pattern. It sparked an addiction though as I just finished my sixth bag. I’m looking at fabric with a lens of ‘ ..that would look fabulous as a sling bag!’
Ive made 200 of these and sell them all at a local market, I make 50 at a time get them all prepared zippers in, hardware on , once prepared can make 6 a day takes me a couple months to prepare but well worth the time , market opens at 9am gone by 11:30 am can make pretty fast now, Fun, Fun, Fun
I just finished my third of this pattern. Today’s is cork in two colors with water resistant canvas lining. No interfacing, with the foam on the strap, swivel hook clasp. I’ve been using my other two in the last year. Unfortunately my waxes canvas one has become filthy and cleaning has been unsuccessful. Hoping the cork is better. It was great to sew with.
Thank you Jess for this detailed step by step video. My very first attempt with the zipper tape and the rivet installation. I had to watch certain parts over and over, especially the smiley part zipper installation! The one I am making is cotton canvas; I may graduate to the waxed canvas as yours looks too good!! Love your bag tutorial videos.
Thank you so much for this tutorial and all the helpful tips! I just got the pattern and used the link to order lining fabric from Wonderground. I'm so excited to make a bag for my mom's trip to WDW! She will be so happy!
Purchased the pattern AND made my first purchase from Wonderground fabrics for the WP canvas! Loved the tutorial as always your tutorials are complete!!! Thank you Jess!
Omg. I probably watched this 10 times tomorrow I should be able to finish the bag.First bag on my Bernina that is years old. I loved every minute. Thank you have three grand daughters in their early 20’s want to make 3 more I loved the waxed canvas But would like to find vynle. Having trouble finding vynle I am in Naples Florida might have to try some of decorator fabric stores. Thank you for doing the video I used lots of your links.
When you showed that pretty strap, I thought it was a guitar strap. There's probably a way to use a guitar strap as an alternate strap. I like the idea of multipurpose -interchangeable straps. You can color coordinate with your outfit.
Eeekkk, I have been so excited for this tutorial. It's such an awesome bag. It's very gender neutral and has a lot of potential for changing it up with fabric and hardware. Thank you for another amazing tutorial.
I just finish this one yesterday!! and totally love it. Your tutorials are amazing!! Thanks!! If I had to pay you for every time I see your videos you would be a millionaire....lol. Also I did this patter with my new Juki TL 18QPV....OMG! what a difference . I was trying to send you a picture but could not do it here....
Jess, I made this bag watching your video on it about 15 times lol I learn so much from you. My Bag came out Sooooooooooooo goood thanks to you, tell me how I can post to show you what I created..... Thank You
@@jjsanchez07 I"m definitely not the fastest at these. I would estimate it took me about 6 hours from the first cut of the material to the last stitch.
This Dude just subbed to this Dudette. I have a singer 20u and consew 226. Im so ready to start making bags. My first goal is to spot some one wearing my bag in town.
Hey! I love your videos and this one pushed me over the edge to actually finally get the materials and pattern for this bag that I'd been eyeing for a WHILE. I've been sewing garments forever but your tutorials made me actually believe I could make bags as well! If possible, could you do more backpack/sling bag tutorials?
I'm so excited to give this pattern a try! Your tutorials are always so helpful and highlight patterns I might not ever discover or have the bravery to try. I attempted to use the code, but it didn't seem to work for me.
Make sure you message Caroline at her Etsy shop if you're having problems. The code is good until the end of the year, so you have time to get it working
I’ve been watching sling bag videos (the equivalent of half my life) in an effort to learn to make them! I purchased a ready made by Vera Bradley and almost immediately found things I wanted to change! Definitely the downside to knowing how to sew! Surprise! Surprise! Your video addressed several changes I want to make! Two things I still want to add are a small (about three inches deep) zipper pocket at the upper part of the back to store my keys (I hate digging) and I think I’d prefer a split zipper strap to allow converting to a backpack. Thank you so much for this detailed and explained video!
I know I should never correct someone as it in poor taste, however, I believe you should know. Fandangle means to acquire through unscrupulous means. Flandangle means to go commando in a flight suit. Very different meanings. Fantastic videos!
Love the tutorial!! I don't know if you noticed it later or not but you sewed the side connectors upside-down when attaching to the back panel. It looks like it probably doesn't matter which way it goes but thought I'd let you know in case you want to say something in the video. You had it in the right direction in the first bag you made. 🙃
You have encouraged me to attempt and accomplish more than I ever thought possible!! Woohoo!! What fabric is the binding made from? Did you make your own? Thank you!
Is there a smaller version of this bag available? I would like to wear it on the front rather than the back and I agree, a smaller size would be ideal. Thanks in advance for your reply!
Such realism in a tutorial: “…because that’s what I have on hand…”, “…beat it into submission…”, and of course “duct tape”! Well done.
I had an idea to put a D ring inside the hidden pocket because a lot of vehicles have those fobs that you just need to have on you but not access. It has gone over well.
What a terrific idea!! I have a car like that! Totally stealing this lol 🎉

Thank you this was really easy to make and i love the result 😃
Would you possibly do a tutorial on a wayfarer sling bag? I can’t find anyone that has a tutorial that explains as well as you.
She would have to get permission from the designer first since it is not hers
Great video & pattern. I think I will reduce final zip part to 1/4 ( not so tight with binding) & maybe add card slots, but GREAT video as usual ❤️
I'm so excited to give this pattern a try! Your tutorials are always so helpful and highlight patterns I might not ever discover or have the bravery to try. I attempted to use the code, but it didn't seem to work for me.
Make sure you message Caroline at her Etsy shop if you're having problems. The code is good until the end of the year, so you have time to get it working
I did it and it turned out great...Thank you so much for your tutorials. always so much fun to follow.
Hi Joanne, I was curious approximately how many hours did it take you to make this bag? Thank you for your help!
I love your bag tutorials. Your instructions are clear and easy to follow. Could you consider doing a tutorial on the Kandou Crafts Traveler Pouch?
I am from Trinidad and Tobago i would like to get the pattern please how much for it and how can i get the pattern i love the bag
Always love your tuts! Thank you for this one!
Amazing. ❤
thanks so much for this video tutorial, love ur design 💕❤️
I made the bag and the strap connector broke off. I followed the instructions and love your tutorials. What did I do wrong? I have the Juki 1541s
You stitched the connectors in the UP position, instead of DOWN.
Also, BIC lighters has a bunch of cute designs on lighters now. I saw a commercial for them with Martha Stewart.
Ok I have GOT to look this up! I keep hearing about Martha Stewart and BIC lighters! I'm contacting BIC, we need some sewing lighters!
I’ve been watching sling bag videos (the equivalent of half my life) in an effort to learn to make them! I purchased a ready made by Vera Bradley and almost immediately found things I wanted to change! Definitely the downside to knowing how to sew! Surprise! Surprise! Your video addressed several changes I want to make! Two things I still want to add are a small (about three inches deep) zipper pocket at the upper part of the back to store my keys (I hate digging) and I think I’d prefer a split zipper strap to allow converting to a backpack. Thank you so much for this detailed and explained video!
I know I should never correct someone as it in poor taste, however, I believe you should know. Fandangle means to acquire through unscrupulous means. Flandangle means to go commando in a flight suit. Very different meanings. Fantastic videos!
Jess, great tutorial and Caroline great pattern. ❤️😊
Love the tutorial!! I don't know if you noticed it later or not but you sewed the side connectors upside-down when attaching to the back panel. It looks like it probably doesn't matter which way it goes but thought I'd let you know in case you want to say something in the video. You had it in the right direction in the first bag you made. 🙃
I sew them in this way on purpose. It seems to work better when worn
Just bought and printed this pattern! I’m so freakin excited to make some! 🥳
Yayayay!! Keep me updated!
I have been dying to find this pattern! I would add card pockets as well!
You have encouraged me to attempt and accomplish more than I ever thought possible!! Woohoo!! What fabric is the binding made from? Did you make your own? Thank you!
Is there a smaller version of this bag available? I would like to wear it on the front rather than the back and I agree, a smaller size would be ideal. Thanks in advance for your reply!
Love the bag! Could you also show us the Daythum sling by country cow designs? Please!
